Topic: TAR Australia 2 - TV Ratings (Read 5046 times)

Yeah, They've seemed to gone to 50 minutes of material instead of the full hour usually seen last season.

As mentioned, this has had an effect on editing. They're leaving a lot out. I think TAR makes do with even shorter time, something like 42-44 minutes. Although even TAR's editing in the past 2 or so season have been substandard

One of the things I instantly liked about TARaus was that they put more of it on the screen. But the editing team just seems crunched now.

BTW it's never a good sign when a network keeps shuffling a show around to different timeslots. Bonehead decisions.

Is it enough to keep the show going and getting renewed for another season though? I'd think at the 7:30 timeslot they'd be at least hoping to hit the 1 million mark, but I guess that's pretty close. Also Home and Away which was before that had a lower total (800k or something) which is lower than its usual million so I'm assuming it was just a bad night to draw in viewers from H&A. Revenge did astonishingly well as usual though (almost 1.4mil).On a side note 7 Casting did post on their facebook page to be on the lookout for any casting announcements so they obviously anticipate a 3rd season, just have to wait for more promising numbers and this is a step in the right direction.

As much as I hate time slot changes, I reckon it could benefit from being shifted to 8:30 now that Revenge is done so that it doesn't clash with Masterchef. I was flicking back and forth just to make sure my precious Amina didn't go home on MasterChef last night.

So happy with the rise in viewers!

Actually, Revenge isn't done yet - it still has three more episodes to go until it finishes, but I personally like the 7:30 timeslot because it is more accessible for some viewers, although personally I'd prefer 8:30.

Cause you said you'd never let me go, and I said I can but now we knowThat it's too hard to say three words, too hard to make it workWhen there's nothing left to talk about, cause you know the flame is running outTwo hearts are left to burn... do you know, we're only left with smoke

The 9.30 slot was awful. I think this Monday 7.30, or Monday 8.30 timeslot should be where it stays. It is where the race is most at home and can easily pull viewers. I mean 1.1 million and 971 thousand compared to only 691 and 750 thousand is a lot more, and that is the threshold it needs to stay at to get it's much deserved third season!

The show came 2nd in the 7:30- 8:30 timeslot to BB but TARAU beat BB in the Perth and Adelaide markets.

TARAU the came in First in the final 1/2 hour in a rattings race just as clouse as last nights final moments on the show (on 10 new Drama Puberty Blues got 925,000 and on 9 The Farmer Wants a Wife got 909,000).
